In this example, the adverb phrase is "with either hand." The adverb phrase provides more details about how the action of the verb was performed. It can provide information regarding how, why, where, when and in what way the action happened. In this sentence, the word the adverb phrase modifies (in other words, the verb of the sentence) is "shoots."
